After successful completion of the course, students are able to develop an architectural design by considering context and background as well as specific aspects of the given design task, such as hierarchies of space, orientation, appropriateness, balance of nature and architecture, dimensions, proportions, construction and materials. Architecture should be understood as an immersive spatial experience.

The Bar to be is the place where dreams come true. It can be anywhere in the world. In the urban jungle or in the romance of a lonely beach. At the North Pole, in the desert or the temperate zones of Central Europe. The bar can be a classic whiskey bar, a milk bar or a coffee shop, or it can offer other types of comfort, such as fresh air or beautiful views. 

The bar must meet the following criteria:

• It must be linked to a story
• It must offer a special kind of comfort
• It should represent its own definition of beauty

Topics to be discussed: The design task of a bar in function, construction and detail; the concept of the comfort factor; the controversial concept of beauty in architecture.
